QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE PROXY MATERIALS AND THE ANNUAL AND SPECIAL MEETING

Why am I receiving this Proxy Statement and proxy card?

You are receiving this Proxy Statement and proxy card because you are a stockholder of record as at the close of business on July 12, 2013, and are entitled to vote at this Annual and Special Meeting. This Proxy Statement describes issues on which the Company would like you, as a stockholder, to vote. It provides information on these issues so that you can make an informed decision. You do not need to attend the Annual and Special Meeting to vote your shares.

When you sign the proxy card you appoint K. Ian Matheson, Chief Executive Officer, President and a director of the Company, and Jason Mitchell, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, Secretary and a director, as your representatives at the Annual and Special Meeting. As your representatives, they will vote your shares at the Annual and Special Meeting (or any adjournments or postponements) as you have instructed them on your proxy card. With proxy voting, your shares will be voted whether or not you attend the Annual and Special Meeting. Even if you plan to attend the Annual and Special Meeting, it is a good idea to complete, sign and return your proxy card in advance of the Annual and Special Meeting, just in case your plans change.

If an issue comes up for vote at the Annual and Special Meeting (or any adjournments or postponements) that is not described in this Proxy Statement, your representatives will vote your shares, under your proxy, at their discretion, subject to any limitations imposed by law.

6.

We will also consider any other business that properly comes before the Annual and Special Meeting.

How do I vote?

You have several voting options. You may vote by:

  • Signing your proxy card and mailing it to the Company’s office at the address on the proxy card;
  • Signing and faxing your proxy card to the Company’s office for proxy voting at the number provided on the proxy card; and
  • Attending the Annual and Special Meeting and voting in person.

If your shares are held in an account with a brokerage firm, bank, dealer, or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in a “street name” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual and Special Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the Annual and Special Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares in person at the Annual and Special Meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy card from your broker, bank, or other nominee.

What if I share an address with another person and we received only one copy of the proxy materials?

The Company will only deliver one Proxy Statement to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless the Company has received contrary instructions from one or more of the stockholders. The Company will promptly deliver a separate copy of this Proxy Statement to a stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the document was delivered upon oral or written request to:

5


Royal Mines and Minerals Corp.
Attention: Jason Mitchell, CFO, Treasurer and Secretary
2580 Anthem Village Dr.
Henderson, Nevada, 89052

Stockholders may also address future requests for separate delivery of Proxy Statements and/or annual reports by contacting us at the address listed above.

What if I change my mind after I return my proxy?

You may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the polls close at the Annual and Special Meeting. You may do this by:

(a)

executing and delivering a written notice of revocation of proxy to the office of the Company below at any time before the taking of the vote at the Annual and Special Meeting;

     
(b)

executing and delivering a later-dated proxy relating to the same shares to the office of the Company below at any time before taking of the vote at the Annual and Special Meeting; or

     
(c)

attending the Annual and Special Meeting in person and:

     
(i)

giving affirmative notice at the Annual and Special Meeting of your intent to revoke their proxy; and

     
(ii)

voting in person.

Any written revocation of proxy or subsequent later-dated proxy should be delivered to the Company as follows:

Royal Mines and Minerals Corp.
Attention: Jason Mitchell, CFO, Treasurer and Secretary
2580 Anthem Village Dr.
Henderson, Nevada, 89052
Fax No. (866) 381-2090

Attendance at the Annual and Special Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a stockholder’s proxy without the giving of notice of intent to revoke that proxy.

What constitutes a quorum?

In order to hold a valid meeting of the Company’s stockholders, a quorum equal to one percent (1%) of the shares of the Common Stock outstanding must be represented at the meeting. These shares may be represented in person or represented by proxy.

Stockholders who abstain from voting on any or all proposals, but who are present at the Annual and Special Meeting or represented at the Annual and Special Meeting by a properly executed proxy will have their shares counted as present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum. Broker non-votes will also be counted as present at the Annual and Special Meeting for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum. However, abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted either in favor or against any of the proposals brought before the Annual and Special Meeting. A broker non-vote occurs when shares held by a broker for the account of a beneficial owner are not voted for or against a particular proposal because the broker has not received voting instructions from that beneficial owner and the broker does not have discretionary authority to vote those shares.

In the event that a quorum is not present at the Annual and Special Meeting, or in the event that a quorum is present but sufficient votes to approve the proposal are not received, the persons named as proxies on the enclosed proxy card may propose one or more adjournments of the Annual and Special Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies. The persons named as proxies will vote upon such adjournment after consideration of all circumstances that may bear upon a decision to adjourn the Annual and Special Meeting. Any business that might have been transacted at the Annual and Special Meeting originally called may be transacted at any such adjourned session(s) at which a quorum is present. The Company will pay the costs of preparing and distributing to stockholders additional proxy materials, if required in connection with any adjournment. Any adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a majority of those securities represented at the Annual and Special Meeting in person or by proxy.

6


How are abstentions and broker non-votes treated?

Stockholders may vote for or against the proposals or they may abstain from voting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at the Annual and Special Meeting, but will not be counted as either in favor or against the proposals.

What vote is required to approve each item?

As of the Record Date, there were 185,593,141 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Company’s common stock represented at the Annual and Special Meeting in person or by proxy is required to approve the following proposals:

1.

To elect three members of the Company’s Board of Directors to hold office until the next Annual and Special Meeting of stockholders or until their respective successors have been elected or qualified.

   
2.

To ratify the appointment of De Joya Griffith & Company LLC as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2014.

   
3.

To ratify, confirm and approve the Company’s 2013 Stock Option Plan.

Therefore, the number of votes cast at the Annual and Special Meeting in favor of each of the above proposals must be greater than the number of votes cast against each respective proposal.

A majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock must vote in favor of the proposal in order to amend to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock, from 300,000,000, par value $0.001, to 900,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001. Therefore, the number of votes cast at the Annual and Special Meeting in favor of the proposed amendment must be greater than one half of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock.

Stockholder votes on that are conducted on an advisory basis are not binding on the Company’s Board of Directors. As such, no votes are required on to approve executive compensation or to determine the frequency of stockholder advisory votes on executive compensation.

Will my shares be voted if I do not sign and return my proxy card?

If your shares are held through a brokerage account, your brokerage firm, under certain circumstances, may vote your shares.

If your shares are registered in your name, and you do not sign and return your proxy card, your shares will not be voted at the meeting.

Will I be entitled to appraisal rights under Nevada law?

Under Nevada law, the Company’s stockholders are not entitled to appraisal rights in connection with the proposals.

Who pays for this proxy solicitation?

The Company will bear the entire costs of solicitation, including the preparation, assembly, printing, and mailing of this Proxy Statement, the proxy card, and any additional solicitation materials furnished to the stockholders. Copies of solicitation materials will be furnished to brokerage houses, fiduciaries, custodians holding shares in their names that are beneficially owned by others so that they may forward the solicitation material to such beneficial owners.

When are the stockholder proposals due for the 2013 Annual and Special Meeting?

PROPOSAL NUMBER THREE – APPROVAL OF 2013 STOCK OPTION PLAN

Approval of 2013 Stock Option Plan

On June 20, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the Company’s 2013 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2013 Plan"). The purpose of the 2013 Plan is to enhance the long-term stockholder value of the Company by offering opportunities to directors, officers, employees and eligible consultants of the Company to acquire and maintain stock ownership in the Company in order to give these persons the opportunity to participate in the Company's growth and success, and to encourage them to remain in the service of the Company. The stockholders of the Company will be asked at the Annual and Special Meeting to ratify and approve the 2013 Plan.

The 2013 Plan allows the Company to grant options to its officers, directors and employees. In addition, the Company may grant options to individuals who act as consultants to the Company, so long as those consultants do not provide services connected to the offer or sale of the Company’s securities in capital raising transactions and do not directly or indirectly promote or maintain a market for the Company’s securities.

A total of 27,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, less any other outstanding options issued under previous stock option plans, are available for issuance under the Plan. However, the Board of Directors may increase the maximum aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be optioned and sold under the Plan provided that the maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be optioned and sold under the Plan shall at no time be greater than 15% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding, less any other outstanding options issued under previous stock option plans. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Company is eligible to grant up to 21,800,000 options under its 2013 Stock Option Plan. There are presently 6,000,000 options outstanding under the Company’s previous stock option plan.

The Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options. Incentive stock options granted under the Plan are those intended to qualify as “incentive stock options” as defined under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. However, in order to qualify as “incentive stock options” under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, the Plan must be approved by the stockholders of the Company within 12 months of its adoption. The Plan has not been approved by the Company’s stockholders. Non-qualified stock options granted under the Plan are option grants that do not qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code.

The 2013 Plan terminates on June 20, 2023, unless sooner terminated by action of the Company’s Board of Directors. No option is exercisable by any person after such expiration. If an award expires, terminates or is cancelled, the shares of the Company’s common stock not purchased thereunder shall again be available for issuance under the 2013 Plan.

Terms of the 2013 Plan

The 2013 Plan will be administered by the Company’s Board of Directors or a committee appointed by and consisting of two or more members of the Board of Directors (the “Plan Administrator”). The Plan Administrator which will have full and final authority with respect to the granting of all options thereunder. Options may be granted under the 2013 Plan to such service providers of the Company and its affiliates, if any, as the Board of Directors may from time to time designate.

The exercise price for shares purchased under an Option shall be as determined by the Plan Administrator, provided that: the exercise price for Options granted to participants other than consultants shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock with respect to incentive stock options and shall not be less than 75% of the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date with respect to non-qualified stock options. The exercise price of incentive stock options granted to a Participant who owns more than 10% of the Company’s common stock shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Company’s common stock.

Subject to earlier termination, all options granted under the 2013 Plan will expire not later than the date that is ten years from the date that such options are granted. In the event that an optionee ceases to be a director, officer, employee or consultant, all unexercisable options will terminate immediately and exercisable options will terminate within thirty days. In the event of the disability or death of an optionee, the exercisable options will only be exercisable within six months of such disability and death. In the event that the optionee is terminated for cause, the options will terminate immediately. Options granted under the 2013 Plan are not transferable or assignable other than by will or other testamentary instrument or pursuant to the laws of succession.

PROPOSAL NUMBER FOUR – APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY’S ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF AUTHORIZED COMMON STOCK

On June 20, 2013 the Board of Directors approved an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company to increase in the authorized common stock of the Company to 900,000,000 shares of common stock. The increase to the number of shares will require an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. The Board of Directors has directed that the increase to the shares of authorized common stock and the corresponding amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation be submitted for approval by the shareholders of the Company.

The Board of Directors has determined that it would be in the best interests of the Company to amend its Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 300,000,000 shares to 900,000,000 shares. Each additional share of Common Stock will have the same rights and privileges as each share of currently authorized Common Stock. The Board of Directors believes it is in the best interests of the Company to increase the number of authorized shares in order to give the Company greater flexibility in considering and planning for future business needs. The shares will be available for issuance by the Board of Directors for proper corporate purposes, including but not limited to, stock dividends, stock splits, acquisitions, financings and compensation plans. The issuance of additional shares of common stock could have the effect of diluting earnings per share, voting power and shareholdings of stockholders. It could also have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of the Company. Other than in connection with the Company's existing employee stock option plans, the Company has no present intent to issue any shares of Common Stock. The Company anticipates issuing additional shares of Common Stock in connection with a future financing with the Company. The Company presently does not have any agreement or other arrangement for any financing involving the issuance of shares of Common Stock. Current stockholders do not have preemptive rights to subscribe for, purchase or reserve any shares of the authorized capital stock of the Company.

If the increase to the Company’s authorized shares of common stock is approved by the Company's shareholders, the Company will file an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of the State of Nevada, which is expected to be accomplished as soon as practicable after shareholder approval is obtained.

Required Vote

The affirmative approval of the holders of record on the Record Date of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, is required to approve Proposal Number Four.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” AN AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY’S ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF AUTHORIZED COMMON STOCK FROM 300,000,000 TO 900,000,000.

PROPOSAL NUMBER FIVE – ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Company is asking that you APPROVE the compensation of the named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement.

The recently enacted Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) provides that the Company’s shareholders vote to approve, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement in accordance with the SEC’s rules.

The Company’s named executive officers are identified in the 2012 Summary Compensation Table, and the compensation of the named executive officers is described on pages 18 through 22. The Company’s executive compensation practices are designed to attract, retain and motivate executive talent, including its named executive officers, who are critical to the Company’s success. The Company is committed to sound executive compensation and corporate governance principles, working to ensure that its practices protect and further the interests of shareholders.

The Board of Directors is therefore requesting your nonbinding vote on the following resolution:

“Resolved, that the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the executive compensation tables and the narrative discussion, is approved.”

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE TO APPROVE THE COMPENSATION OF THE COMPANY’S NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

Note: The Company is providing this advisory vote as required pursuant to Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78n-1). The stockholder vote will not be binding on the Company or the Board, and it will not be construed as overruling any decision by the Company or the Board or creating or implying any change to, or additional, fiduciary duties for the Company or the Board.

15


PROPOSAL NUMBER SIX – ADVISORY VOTE ON FREQUENCY OF ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Company is requesting your nonbinding vote on whether an advisory vote of stockholders to approve the compensation of its named executive officers as disclosed in the Proxy Statement should take place every three years, every two years or every year. For the reasons explained below, the Company is recommending that this advisory vote take place every THREE YEARS .

The Company believes that as a smaller reporting company in the development stage, having an advisory vote on executive compensation every three years would comply with regulatory requirements and minimize the expenses associated with conducting advisory votes.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR A THREE-YEAR FREQUENCY OF ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

Note: The Company is providing this advisory vote as required pursuant to Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78n-1). The stockholder vote will not be binding on the Company or the Board, and it will not be construed as overruling any decision by the Company or the Board or creating or implying any change to, or additional, fiduciary duties for the Company or the Board.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Director Independence

The Company’s common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board inter-dealer quotation system, which does not have director independence requirements. Under NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2), a director is not considered to be independent if he or she is also an executive officer or employee of the corporation. All of the Company’s directors are considered executive officers under Rule 3b-7 of the Exchange Act. Therefore, none of the Company’s directors are independent.

As a result of the Company’s limited operating history and minimal resources, management believes that it will have difficulty in attracting independent directors. In addition, the Company would likely be required to obtain directors and officers insurance coverage in order to attract and retain independent directors. Management believes that the costs associated with maintaining such insurance is prohibitive at this time.

Meetings and Committees of the Board of Directors

During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors held no formal meetings. All corporate actions were done by unanimous written resolutions of the Board of Directors. All directors are expected to attend the Annual and Special Meeting and their attendance is recorded in the minutes.

Audit Committee

The Board of Directors does not maintain a separately-designated standing audit committee. As a result, all of the Company’s directors act as its audit committee. K. Ian Matheson, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President, and Jason S. Mitchell, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, each meet the definition of an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

Compensation Committee

The Company does not have a compensation committee.

Director Nomination

Nomination Committee

The Board of Directors has not formed a nominating committee or similar committee to assist the Board of Directors with the nomination of directors for the Issuer. The Board of Directors considers itself too small to warrant creation of such a committee; and each of the directors has contacts he can draw upon to identify new members of the Board of Directors as needed from time to time.

The Board of Directors will continually assess its size, structure and composition, taking into consideration its current strengths, skills and experience, proposed retirements and the requirements and strategic direction of the Issuer. As required, directors will recommend suitable candidates for consideration as members of the Board of Directors.

Stockholder Nomination of Directors

Stockholders who wish to submit nominees for consideration by the board for election as a director of the Company may do so by submitting in writing such nominees’ names, in compliance with the procedures as described below, to the Company’s Secretary. A stockholder’s nomination must contain:

  • A statement that the writer is a stockholder and is proposing a candidate for consideration by the Board of Directors;
  • The name of and contact information for the candidate;
  • A statement of the candidate’s business and educational experience;

17


  • Information regarding each of the factors listed above, sufficient to enable the Board of Directors to evaluate the candidate;
  • A statement detailing any relationship or understanding between the proposing stockholder and the candidate;
  • A statement that the candidate is willing to be considered and willing to serve as a director if nominated and elected; and
  • A statement of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock that the nominating stockholder holds of record or in which stockholder has a beneficial interest and the number of such shares that have been held for more than one year.

Stockholder Communication with the Board of Directors

Stockholders desiring to communicate with the Board of Directors on matters other than director nominations should submit their communication in writing to Jason Mitchell, CFO, Treasurer and Secretary, Royal Mines and Minerals Corp., 2580 Anthem Village Dr., Henderson, Nevada 89052 and identify themselves as a stockholder. The Secretary will forward all such communication to the Board of Directors for a determination as to how to proceed.

OTHER EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

Ian Matheson, and Jason Mitchell are the only named executive officers of the Company. Although not formally appointed as an executive officer Michael Boyko performs executive functions for the Company and is compensated for the executive services he provides.

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s securities (“Reporting Persons”), to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Reporting Persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all forms they file pursuant to Section 16(a).

Notes:

(1)

Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of common shares actually outstanding on July 12, 2013. As of July 12, 2013, there were 185,593,141 common shares issued and outstanding.

Any Award settlement, including payment deferrals, may be subject to such conditions, restrictions and contingencies as the Plan Administrator shall determine. The Plan Administrator may permit or require the deferral of any Award payment, subject to such rules and procedures as it may establish, which may include provisions for the payment or crediting of interest, or dividend equivalents, including converting such credits into deferred stock equivalents.

ARTICLE 7.
AWARDS OF OPTIONS

7.1 Grant of Options

The Plan Administrator shall have the authority, in its sole discretion, to grant Options to Participants as Incentive Stock Options or as Non-Qualified Stock Options, which shall be appropriately designated.

7.2 Option Exercise Price

The exercise price for shares purchased under an Option shall be as determined by the Plan Administrator, provided that:

(a)

the exercise price for Options granted to Participants other than Consultant Participants shall not be less than the minimum exercise price required by Article 8.3 with respect to Incentive Stock Options and shall not be less than 75% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Grant Date with respect to Non-Qualified Stock Options;

28



(b)

the exercise price for Options granted to Consultant Participants shall not be less than 75% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Grant Date.

7.3 Term of Options

Subject to earlier termination in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the instrument evidencing the Option, the maximum term of an Option (the "Option Term") shall be as established for that Option by the Plan Administrator or, if not so established, shall be ten (10) years from the Grant Date.

7.4 Exercise of Options

The Plan Administrator shall establish and set forth in each instrument that evidences an Option the time at which, or the installments in which, the Option shall vest and become exercisable, any of which provisions may be waived or modified by the Plan Administrator at any time.

The Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, may adjust the vesting schedule of an Option held by a Participant who works less than "full-time" as that term is defined by the Plan Administrator or who takes a Company-approved leave of absence.

To the extent an Option has vested and become exercisable, the Option may be exercised in whole or from time to time in part by delivery to the Company of a written stock option exercise agreement or notice, in a form and in accordance with procedures established by the Plan Administrator, setting forth the number of shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised, the restrictions imposed on the shares purchased under such exercise agreement, if any, and such representations and agreements as may be required by the Plan Administrator, accompanied by payment in full as described in Article 7.5. An Option may be exercised only for whole shares and may not be exercised for less than a reasonable number of shares at any one time, as determined by the Plan Administrator.

7.5 Payment of Exercise Price

The exercise price for shares purchased under an Option shall be paid in full to the Company by the delivery of consideration equal to the product of the Option exercise price and the number of shares purchased. Such consideration must be paid before the Company will issue the shares being purchased and must be delivered in the form of a check or bank draft or other method of payment or some combination thereof as may be acceptable to the Plan Administrator for that purchase.

7.6 Post-Termination Exercises

The Plan Administrator shall establish and set forth, in each instrument that evidences an Option, whether the Option shall continue to be exercisable, and the terms and conditions of such exercise, if the Participant ceases to be employed by, or to provide services to, the Company or a Related Company, which provisions may be waived or modified by the Plan Administrator at any time. If not so established in the instrument evidencing the Option, the Option shall be exercisable according to the following terms and conditions, which may be waived or modified by the Plan Administrator at any time:

(a)

Except as otherwise set forth in this Article 7.6, any portion of an Option that is not vested and exercisable on the Employment Termination Date shall expire on such date.

     
(b)

Any portion of an Option that is vested and exercisable on the Employment Termination Date shall expire on the earliest to occur of:

     
(i)

if the Participant's Employment Termination Date occurs by reason of retirement, resignation or for any other reasons other than for Cause, Disability or death, the day which is thirty (30) days after such Employment Termination Date;

29



  (ii)

if the Participant's Employment Termination Date occurs by reason of Disability or death, the day which is six (6) months after such Employment Termination Date; and

     
  (iii)

the last day of the Option Term (the "Option Expiration Date").

     
 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant dies after his or her Employment Termination Date, but while an Option is otherwise exercisable, the portion of the Option that is vested and exercisable on such Employment Termination Date shall expire upon the earlier to occur of: (A) the Option Expiration Date, and (B) the day which is six (6) months after the date of death, unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise.

     
 

Also notwithstanding the foregoing, in case of termination of the Participant's employment or service relationship for Cause, all Options granted to that Participant shall automatically expire upon first notification to the Participant of such termination, unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise. If a Participant's employment or service relationship with the Company is suspended pending an investigation of whether the Participant shall be terminated for Cause, all the Participant's rights under any Option shall likewise be suspended during the period of investigation. If any facts that would constitute termination for Cause are discovered after the Participant's relationship with the Company or a Related Company has ended, any Option then held by the Participant may be immediately terminated by the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion.

     
(c)

Unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise, upon a termination of the Participant’s status as an employee, officer, director or Consultant of the Company or any Related Company (the “Original Position”), other than a termination for Cause, death or Disability, the Participant shall not be deemed to have ceased to be employed by or to have ceased providing services to the Company or any Related Company, provided that the Participant acts as an employee, officer, director or Consultant of the Company or a Related Company eligible to receive an Award under the provisions of Article 5, in another capacity, immediately upon the termination of the Original Position.

     
(d)

The effect of a Company-approved leave of absence on the application of this Article 7 shall be determined by the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion.

     
(e)

If a Participant's employment or service relationship with the Company or a Related Company terminates by reason of Disability or death, the Option shall become fully vested and exercisable for all the shares subject to the Option. Such Option shall remain exercisable for the time period set forth in this Article 7.6.

ARTICLE 8.
INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION LIMITATIONS

Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, and to the extent required by Section 422 of the Code, Incentive Stock Options shall be subject to the following additional terms and conditions:

8.1 Dollar Limitation

To the extent the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the Grant Date) of Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time during any calendar year (under the Plan and all other stock option plans of the Company) exceeds $100,000, such portion in excess of $100,000 shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option. In the event the Participant holds two or more such Options that become exercisable for the first time in the same calendar year, such limitation shall be applied on the basis of the order in which such Options are granted.

8.2 Eligible Employees

Individuals who are not employees of the Company or one of its parent corporations or subsidiary corporations may not be granted Incentive Stock Options.

8.3 Exercise Price

The exercise price of an Incentive Stock Option shall be at least 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Grant Date, and in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Participant who owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of the stock of the Company or of its parent or subsidiary corporations (a "Ten Percent Stockholder"), shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Grant Date. The determination of more than 10% ownership shall be made in accordance with Section 422 of the Code.

30


8.4 Exercisability

An Option designated as an Incentive Stock Option shall cease to qualify for favorable tax treatment as an Incentive Stock Option to the extent it is exercised (if permitted by the terms of the Option) (a) more than three (3) months after the Employment Termination Date if termination was for reasons other than death or disability, (b) more than one (1) year after the Employment Termination Date if termination was by reason of disability, or (c) after the Participant has been on leave of absence for more than ninety (90) days, unless the Participant's reemployment rights are guaranteed by statute or contract.

8.5 Taxation of Incentive Stock Options

In order to obtain certain tax benefits afforded to Incentive Stock Options under Section 422 of the Code, the Participant must hold the shares acquired upon the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option for two (2) years after the Grant Date and one (1) year after the date of exercise. A Participant may be subject to the alternative minimum tax at the time of exercise of an Incentive Stock Option. The Participant shall give the Company prompt notice of any disposition of shares acquired on the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option prior to the expiration of such holding periods.

8.6 Code Definitions

For the purposes of this Article 8, "parent corporation," "subsidiary corporation" and "disability" shall have the meanings attributed to those terms for purposes of Section 422 of the Code.

ARTICLE 9.
WITHHOLDING

9.1 General

The Company may require the Participant to pay to the Company the amount of any taxes that the Company is required by applicable federal, state, local or foreign law to withhold with respect to the grant, vesting or exercise of an Award. The Company shall not be required to issue any shares Common Stock under the Plan until such obligations are satisfied.

9.2 Payment of Withholding Obligations in Cash or Shares

The Plan Administrator may permit or require a Participant to satisfy all or part of his or her tax withholding obligations by: (a) paying cash to the Company, (b) having the Company withhold from any cash amounts otherwise due or to become due from the Company to the Participant, (c) having the Company withhold a portion of any shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issued to the Participant having a value equal to the tax withholding obligations (up to the employer's minimum required tax withholding rate), or (d) surrendering any shares of Common Stock that the Participant previously acquired having a value equal to the tax withholding obligations (up to the employer's minimum required tax withholding rate to the extent the Participant has held the surrendered shares for less than six months).

ARTICLE 10.
ASSIGNABILITY

10.1 Assignment

Neither an Award nor any interest therein may be assigned, pledged or transferred by the Participant or made subject to attachment or similar proceedings other than by will or by the applicable laws of descent and distribution, and, during the Participant's lifetime, such Awards may be exercised only by the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by Section 422 of the Code, the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, may permit a Participant to assign or transfer an Award or may permit a Participant to designate a beneficiary who may exercise the Award or receive payment under the Award after the Participant's death; provided, however, that any Award so assigned or transferred shall be subject to all the terms and conditions of the Plan and those contained in the instrument evidencing the Award.

31


ARTICLE 11.
ADJUSTMENTS

11.1 Adjustment of Shares

In the event, at any time or from time to time, a stock dividend, stock split, spin-off, combination or exchange of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, distribution to stockholders other than a normal cash dividend, or other change in the Company's corporate or capital structure, including, without limitation, a Related Party Transaction, results in: (a) the outstanding shares of Common Stock, or any securities exchanged therefor or received in their place, being exchanged for a different number or kind of securities of the Company or of any other corporation, or (b) new, different or additional securities of the Company or of any other corporation being received by the holders of shares of Common Stock of the Company, then the Plan Administrator shall make proportional adjustments in: (i) the maximum number and kind of securities subject to the Plan and issuable as Incentive Stock Options as set forth in Article 4 and the maximum number and kind of securities that may be made subject to Awards to any individual as set forth in Article 4.3, and (ii) the number and kind of securities that are subject to any outstanding Award and the per share price of such securities, without any change in the aggregate price to be paid therefor. The determination by the Plan Administrator as to the terms of any of the foregoing adjustments shall be conclusive and binding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a dissolution or liquidation of the Company or a Corporate Transaction shall not be governed by this Article 11.1 but shall be governed by Articles 11.2 and 11.3, respectively.

11.2 Dissolution or Liquidation

To the extent not previously exercised or settled, and unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion, Options denominated in units shall terminate immediately prior to the dissolution or liquidation of the Company. To the extent a forfeiture provision or repurchase right applicable to an Award has not been waived by the Plan Administrator, the Award shall be forfeited immediately prior to the consummation of the dissolution or liquidation.

11.3 Corporate Transaction

Options

(a)

In the event of a Corporate Transaction, except as otherwise provided in the instrument evidencing an Option (or in a written employment or services agreement between a Participant and the Company or Related Company) and except as provided in subsection (b) below, each outstanding Option shall be assumed or an equivalent option or right substituted by the surviving corporation, the successor corporation or its parent corporation, as applicable (the "Successor Corporation").

   
(b)

If, in connection with a Corporate Transaction, the Successor Corporation refuses to assume or substitute for an Option, then each such outstanding Option shall become fully vested and exercisable with respect to 100% of the unvested portion of the Option. In such case, the Plan Administrator shall notify the Participant in writing or electronically that the unvested portion of the Option specified above shall be fully vested and exercisable for a specified time period. At the expiration of the time period, the Option shall terminate, provided that the Corporate Transaction has occurred.

   
(c)

For the purposes of this Article 11.3, the Option shall be considered assumed or substituted for if following the Corporate Transaction the option or right confers the right to purchase or receive, for each share of Common Stock subject to the Option immediately prior to the Corporate Transaction, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the Corporate Transaction by holders of Common Stock for each share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Corporate Transaction is not solely common stock of the Successor Corporation, the Plan Administrator may, with the consent of the Successor Corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Option, for each share of Common Stock subject thereto, to be solely common stock of the Successor Corporation substantially equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the Corporate Transaction. The determination of such substantial equality of value of consideration shall be made by the Plan Administrator and its determination shall be conclusive and binding.

32



(d)

All Options shall terminate and cease to remain outstanding immediately following the Corporate Transaction, except to the extent assumed by the Successor Corporation.

11.4 Further Adjustment of Awards

Subject to Articles 11.2 and 11.3, the Plan Administrator shall have the discretion, exercisable at any time before a sale, merger, consolidation, reorganization, liquidation or change of control of the Company, as defined by the Plan Administrator, to take such further action as it determines to be necessary or advisable, and fair and equitable to the Participants, with respect to Awards. Such authorized action may include (but shall not be limited to) establishing, amending or waiving the type, terms, conditions or duration of, or restrictions on, Awards so as to provide for earlier, later, extended or additional time for exercise, lifting restrictions and other modifications, and the Plan Administrator may take such actions with respect to all Participants, to certain categories of Participants or only to individual Participants. The Plan Administrator may take such action before or after granting Awards to which the action relates and before or after any public announcement with respect to such sale, merger, consolidation, reorganization, liquidation or change of control that is the reason for such action.

11.5 Limitations

The grant of Awards shall in no way affect the Company's right to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

11.6 Fractional Shares

In the event of any adjustment in the number of shares covered by any Award, each such Award shall cover only the number of full shares resulting from such adjustment.

ARTICLE 12.
AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

12.1 Amendment or Termination of Plan

The Board may suspend, amend or terminate the Plan or any portion of the Plan at any time and in such respects as it shall deem advisable; provided, however, that to the extent required for compliance with Section 422 of the Code or any applicable law or regulation, stockholder approval shall be required for any amendment that would: (a) increase the total number of shares available for issuance under the Plan, (b) modify the class of employees eligible to receive Options, or (c) otherwise require stockholder approval under any applicable law or regulation. Any amendment made to the Plan that would constitute a "modification" to Incentive Stock Options outstanding on the date of such amendment shall not, without the consent of the Participant, be applicable to such outstanding Incentive Stock Options but shall have prospective effect only.

33


12.2 Term of Plan

Unless sooner terminated as provided herein, the Plan shall terminate ten (10) years after the earlier of the Plan's adoption by the Board and approval by the stockholders.

12.3 Consent of Participant

The suspension, amendment or termination of the Plan or a portion thereof or the amendment of an outstanding Award shall not, without the Participant's consent, materially adversely affect any rights under any Award theretofore granted to the Participant under the Plan. Any change or adjustment to an outstanding Incentive Stock Option shall not, without the consent of the Participant, be made in a manner so as to constitute a "modification" that would cause such Incentive Stock Option to fail to continue to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any adjustments made pursuant to Article 11 shall not be subject to these restrictions.

ARTICLE 13.
GENERAL

13.1 Evidence of Awards

Awards granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by a written instrument that shall contain such terms, conditions, limitations and restrictions as the Plan Administrator shall deem advisable and that are not inconsistent with the Plan.

13.2 No Individual Rights

Nothing in the Plan or any Award granted under the Plan shall be deemed to constitute an employment contract or confer or be deemed to confer on any Participant any right to continue in the employ of, or to continue any other relationship with, the Company or any Related Company or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Related Company to terminate a Participant's employment or other relationship at any time, with or without Cause.

13.3 Issuance of Shares

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Company shall have no obligation to issue or deliver any shares of Common Stock under the Plan or make any other distribution of benefits under the Plan unless, in the opinion of the Company's counsel, such issuance, delivery or distribution would comply with all applicable laws (including, without limitation, the requirements of the Securities Act), and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange or similar entity.

The Company shall be under no obligation to any Participant to register for offering or resale or to qualify for exemption under the Securities Act, or to register or qualify under state securities laws, any shares of Common Stock, security or interest in a security paid or issued under, or created by, the Plan, or to continue in effect any such registrations or qualifications if made. The Company may issue certificates for shares with such legends and subject to such restrictions on transfer and stop-transfer instructions as counsel for the Company deems necessary or desirable for compliance by the Company with federal and state securities laws.

To the extent the Plan or any instrument evidencing an Award provides for issuance of stock certificates to reflect the issuance of shares of Common Stock, the issuance may be effected on a noncertificated basis, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or the applicable rules of any stock exchange.

13.4 No Rights as a Stockholder

No Option denominated in units shall entitle the Participant to any cash dividend, voting or other right of a stockholder unless and until the date of issuance under the Plan of the shares that are the subject of such Award.

13.5 Compliance With Laws and Regulations

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, may bifurcate the Plan so as to restrict, limit or condition the use of any provision of the Plan to Participants who are officers or directors subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act without so restricting, limiting or conditioning the Plan with respect to other Participants. Additionally, in interpreting and applying the provisions of the Plan, any Option granted as an Incentive Stock Option pursuant to the Plan shall, to the extent permitted by law, be construed as an "incentive stock option" within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code.

13.6 Participants in Other Countries

The Plan Administrator shall have the authority to adopt such modifications, procedures and subplans as may be necessary or desirable to comply with provisions of the laws of other countries in which the Company or any Related Company may operate to assure the viability of the benefits from Awards granted to Participants employed in such countries and to meet the objectives of the Plan.

13.7 No Trust or Fund

The Plan is intended to constitute an "unfunded" plan. Nothing contained herein shall require the Company to segregate any monies or other property, or shares of Common Stock, or to create any trusts, or to make any special deposits for any immediate or deferred amounts payable to any Participant, and no Participant shall have any rights that are greater than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company.

13.8 Severability

If any provision of the Plan or any Award is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any person, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Plan Administrator, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or, if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the Plan Administrator's determination, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Award, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or Award, and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect.

13.9 Choice of Law

The Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto, to the extent not otherwise governed by the laws of the United States, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Nevada without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.

ARTICLE 14.
EFFECTIVE DATE

14.1 Effective Date of Plan

The effective date is the date on which the Plan is adopted by the Board. If the stockholders of the Company do not approve the Plan within twelve (12) months after the Board's adoption of the Plan, any Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan will be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options.
